[caption id=“attachment_8995631” align=“alignnone” width=“640”] Kagiso Rabada was on fire during the IPL 2020 Qualifier 2 match between Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad as Shreyas Iyer and Co outplayed Sunrisers Hyderabad by 17 runs in Abu Dhabi to set up the title clash against Mumbai Indians. This was the first-ever time the Capitals made it to the IPL final. Sportzpics[/caption] [caption id=“attachment_8995641” align=“alignnone” width=“640”] DC won the toss and opted to bat. Marcus Stoinis was promoted to the opening slot, along with Shikhar Dhawan, and the duo set up the platform for the Capitals with an 86-run stand for the opening wicket. Stoinis played his part with a knock of 38 off just 27 balls.

He smashed 78 runs off just 50 balls, and also went past 600 runs this season, the first time he has gone past that mark in a single edition. It was a collective effort as apart from Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer (21) and Shimron Hetmyer (42) all took DC to 189-3.
